  2. Lawyers In Love

    #jacksonbrowne #lawyersinlove #eightiesrock #rockmusic #80smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky # Jackson Browne slides subtly into combining social commentary with a bit slicker 80's pop/rock sound on his 7th album, released August 2, 1983. He recorded it in a converted downtown LA warehouse and leaned into the 80's radio friendly sound. It was his first time without David Lindley. That's Rick Vito and Danny Korchmar on the guitars. There's some classic…

  5. Texas Flood

    #stevierayvaughahan #bluesrock #texasflood #80srock #blues #rockmusic #rock #music #musicsky #musiciansky #jacksonbrowne The debut album from Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble is released on June 13, 1983. It was glorious. At the time, the 80's were dominated by synthesizers and new wave and out of that bleak landscape landed this album -- Stevie, Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon single handidly dragged the electric blues back into the mainstream.

  7. You know how it is when you play something and, though it's a recording you normally like, you just don't feel it's right for now?

    The other day I was watching an interview by Stephen Colbert of Paul Simon. Stephen Colbert mentioned his five most influential musicians of a specific era and he included Jackson Browne. I thought: Jackson Browne! I haven't listened to him in ages!

    So I started playing the album and did play it all the way through, but I felt like that the whole time I was listening. It just wasn't working for me.

    Since then I've had an earworm of The Road.

    So although I felt I really didn't want to listen to it, clearly my brain had other ideas and I've not been able to stop since.

    Now it's yours if you want it.

    Now if it had been Doctor My Eyes, that would have okay I think. But there you go, that's for another time.
